More quotes by Winston Churchill
I love learning, but hate being taught.
Winston Churchill
English literature is a glorious inheritance which is open to all - there are no barriers, no coupons, and no restrictions. In the English language and in its great writers there are great riches and treasures, of which, of course, the Bible and Shakespeare stand along on the highest platform.
Winston Churchill
A man who gets the reputation of rising at dawn can sleep to noon.
Winston Churchill
There is only one duty, only one safe course, and that is to try to be right and not to fear to do or say what you believe to be right. That is the only way to deserve and to win the confidence of our great people in these days of trouble.
Winston Churchill
I'm just preparing my impromptu remarks.
Winston Churchill
I cannot but think we have much to be thankful for, and more still to hope for in the future.
Winston Churchill
The whole history of the world is summed up in the fact that, when nations are strong, they are not always just, and when they wish to be just, they are no longer strong.
Winston Churchill
It is my belief, you cannot deal with the most serious things in the world unless you understand the most amusing.
Winston Churchill
All dogs look up to you. All cats look down on you. Only the pig looks at you as an equal
Winston Churchill
I have benefited greatly from criticism, and at no time have I suffered a lack thereof.
Winston Churchill
An efficient and a successful administration manifests itself equally in small as in great matters.
Winston Churchill
It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations. Bartlett's Familiar Quotations is an admirable work, and I studied it intently. The quotations when engraved upon the memory give you good thoughts. They also make you anxious to read the authors and look for more.
Winston Churchill
Sometimes our best is simply not enough.... We have to do what is required.
Winston Churchill
A love for tradition has never weakened a nation, indeed it has strengthened nations in their hour of peril.
Winston Churchill
We shall fight in parking lots, we shall fight in empty fields and on wide streets, we shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
To meet Roosevelt with all his buoyant sparkle, his iridescence, was like opening a bottle of champagne.
Winston Churchill
Haven't you learned yet that I put something more than whisky into my speeches.
Winston Churchill
I neither want it [brandy] nor need it, but I should think it pretty hazardous to interfere with the ineradicable habit of a lifetime.
Winston Churchill
That long (Canadian) frontier from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, guarded only by neighbourly respect and honourable obligations, as an example to every country and a pattern for the future of the world.
Winston Churchill
All the great things are simple.
Winston Churchill
